curriculum vitae

​

I have been a painter for over 30 years and have exhibited works throughout Brisbane and Australia.
Many of my works grace the interiors of many corporate offices and elegant homes.

artist statement 

​

I like to make a mess and then turn it into something calm.
Some paintings work, some don’t – the ones that don’t are my best work.
